More than 300 Operators Now Using PeerApp UltraBand Transparent Cache

Newton, Massachusetts, January 22, 2012 – PeerApp, the leading provider of transparent caching platforms for Internet content delivery, today announced that more than 300 network operators worldwide have deployed its UltraBand product in their networks. UltraBand allows operators to deliver “over-the-top” Internet content with improved quality, while reducing associated network load and costs.

PeerApp’s UltraBand transparent caching platform helps operators speed content delivery and reduce network load by automatically detecting popular content and delivering from the edge of the network. The number of operators using UltraBand has grown steadily, surpassing 300 during 2012. These range from nationwide deployments serving millions of subscribers to operators serving local municipalities to university campus networks.

“The accelerating adoption of our technology is evidence of operators’ ever-expanding need to manage over-the-top content, and of the positive impact that UltraBand delivers,” said Robert Mayer, CEO and co-founder, PeerApp. “Increasingly, transparent caching is becoming a standard part of operators’ strategies to manage network costs, build subscriber loyalty and ultimately to monetize OTT content.”
